Before FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE, a planning document applied: <https://github.com/bsdjhb/devsummit/blob/main/15.0/planning.md>. Items included:
― smbfs replacement (v2 or better).
Looking ahead to 16.0-RELEASE, <https://github.com/bsdjhb/devsummit/blob/main/16.0/planning.md> applies. The initial version from BSDCan 2026 was committed four days ago.
I assume that an item for SMB/CIFS will appear in due course.

Linux Flaw Exposes Multiple Distributions to Root Privilege Escalation
A single misstep in the Linux CIFS subsystem, dating back nearly two decades, leaves multiple distributions vulnerable to a devastating root privilege escalation attack, dubbed CIFSwitch. This flaw allows attackers to exploit the kernel's keyring mechanism and gain control of modern Linux systems.

Wondered why my images folder is so huge. Turns out there's a hidden .recycle folder used by Samba/CIFS to act as network level trash bin. You know… in case someone deletes something from a network share by accident.
So all the time I was freeing up space on purpose I ended up with an additional copy on the remote fs 😩
* I use the F-Droid app SMBSync2 to backup my images from the smartphone automatically to my local network share.

So now I have a Storage Box from #Hetzner mounted to a PBS VPS as a #CIFS mount. This thing works faster than I expected, without issues so far. Will see how it goes.
Also, 1TB for € 3.20 is quite a good price. Cheaper than #Backblaze. And I can mount that storage to #HomeAssistant as a backup target as well.

Falls mal jemand damit Probleme hat, könnte es helfen, auf den WireGuard Einstellung der FritzBox die Option für NetBios zu aktivieren.

quicktipp #107: On modern Linux you don't necessarily need Samba to create a SMB share. The Kernel now has its own SMB3 server (KSMBD).
Note: This needs a kernel >= 5.15 and compiled with CONFIG_SMB_SERVER. Ubuntu 24.04+ ships it.
If you are in Red Hat land: This is currently disabled in Fedora and EL10 (for EL9 the kernel would be too old anyways), so you'd need to build kernel + usermode tools yourself.

Możliwe zdalne wykonanie kodu w module ksmbd w Linuksie
W świecie usług są takie, które przewidziane są do publicznej ekspozycji oraz takie, które nie powinny być widoczne „ze świata”. Nie oznacza to jednak, że bezpieczeństwo tych drugich może umykać naszej uwadze.

A question for systemd users:
I have a --user mount unit for a cifs network share. The unit fails with an error that there is no corresponding entry in fstab. I thought mounts were supposed to be a sort of hotplug for fstab ?
I have very little experience in this so I may be totally off the mark. In this case, any reading/links you could point me to would be very helpful.
A quick mount-on-login has turned into a typical systemd nightmare T_T

CW: mac rant tech apple frustration
Why I Think #Macs Are A Pain in 2025: A Rantlet
- Leveraging network shared storage (#AFP, #NFS, #CIFS, doesn't matter) is a raging hemorrhoid PAIN.
- They have secured these machines into near un-usability. Getting an older USB-A/B external hard drive hooked up is a nightmare, and when the "Allow external device to connect?" dialog somehow goes missing? FUUUUUU
- Ports. This is better on the newest high end MBPs but - usb-c only SUCKS. Just don't do it. EVER. At least ethernet and HDMI FFS.
- I can't get any Mac (work issued MBP M3 or my wife's m2 Macbook) to connect to video through a USB-C adapter without juddering the screen into unusability
In short: Apple has optimized the Mac for people who sit in coffee shops drinking soy lattes, never connect their computers to external devices, never try to utilize network shared storage....
They seem tomake them for people who don't REALLY need to use their computers beyond what came in the box.
And if that's all YOU need, good on you, but as a long time Mac user and former lover, I'm getting a bit frustrated!
